This stuff works wonders!!! I had a very thick build up of "funk" all over the frame from leaks from everywhere literally. I caoted the entire frame with the oven cleaner..(3 cans) and let it sit and work for 1 1/2 hours. I fired up my pressure washer and actually sprayed the frame clean!!! I was in awe at the power of the oven cleaner. Now I'm down to business on blasting my frame and finishing it off by primer and paint.

All of that cost me $3.00 and a little water. I figure some guys projects might be at the same status as mine and looking for a cheap frame cleaning solution and wanted to pass along for what it's worth.

Keep the projects going..
I scratch thru the crap with a screwdriver, etc. then soak with oven cleaner. This lets the cleaner get behind the crud and lift it rather than hoping it soaks all the way thru.
